Pretty much all of our big doggies are homed, the boxers are gone, Yogi is also being picked up tomorrow – overall it went pretty well considering Ottawa was in a frenzy and no hydro anywhere in the West End… Back to being quiet again, until the next call from our pounds – hopefully this time it goes back to the regular 1 dog here and there! Thank you to everyone that came and helped, you guys ROCK! Down to the 4 puppies – anyone looking for a pup???

Way too often, we get dogs that are in rough shape and very rarely actually post pictures of how they come in to us…not to break your heart but we are in desperate need of financial assistant for our veterinary care and decided to show you why!! Here is Scruffy, picked up last night at 9pm at a pound, approx. 13 weeks old and already has had a bad and abusive life… He has scabies, matted hair, eye infection, need to be protected against parvo, etc… We have had a rough month with very ill dogs and are in need of funds for his vetting and for others. We have 3 dogs at the vet’s for tomorrow’s surgeries and need your help! We also need foster homes, to care for these fur-babies in time of need… If you can find it in your heart to help us at this time, please do so. You can e-transfer to adoptions@narc-charity.ca, credit card through paypal at information@narc-charity.ca or contact our veterinary, Blackburn Animal Hospital 613-590-0466 and place monies on NARC’s account which is in the negative right now. We use our paypal account monthly to pay our veterinaries in the United States which is also urgently needed.

Scruffy went to the vet’s this morning and has received his Rabies, DAPP (Distemper, Hepatitis, Para-influenza and Parvo) plus an ivermectin shot today to help his little immune system fight the scabies. He is due for other boosters in 2 weeks and also a daily medicated bath which he is in the process of getting as I type. We will have to shave all his hair off being he is so matted but in a few weeks, he will be a cute little lively puppy again – we hope!

We still have a few of the Coonhound puppies left for adoption, send your adoption questionnaire quickly before they are all adopted, they are super cute. We will be free Wednesday evening at 7pm if you wish to meet them. Keep in mind we need your questionnaire in order to meet any of our rescues!

Our lost boy was finally caught in Brampton and is on his way home to Ottawa soon. Went to the vet’s there to see if he is OK, other than being a bit skinny from over 2 weeks on the streets and an eye infection, he will recoup quickly and gain the much needed pounds while in foster. Thank you to our wonderful volunteers for helping in finding him!

We are always looking for wonderful families to foster one of our pooches until they find homes. We have a special case now, possibly pregnant dog looking for a 4 month foster home. Contact us to be PART or NARC!

Our new little guy, a chihuahua got away and lost last night on his way home to NARC, if you see him please let us know. We are desperately trying to get him home safely! Please share this so we can find him, he must be very scared and hungry!

Yes, our doggies do place quickly! If you are interested in one of our pooches, please fill the adoption questionnaire and return it by e-mail to adoptions@narc-charity.ca with a reference, preferably a veterinary reference and someone will be in touch to book an appointments with our fosters.

Recovered and READY – Gilligan, Mystique, Max, Mikey – although we do have clients meeting them this weekend… We will update this page if they have found homes on the weekend. Thank you.

Our dogs are vetted shortly after intake and are adopted pretty fast, if a doggy is of interest, please e-mail us the adoption questionnaire with a reference! We will NOT book you in to meet with our foster dog without a submitted application. All of our dogs are in foster homes and we do not want to disturb our foster families (volunteers) with too many visits… Especially since visits are mostly weekends and in their own private “me + family” time. Thank you for understanding.
